Medal of Honor Announced, Revealed at VGAs

EA announced that Medal of Honor would be getting a franchise reboot as it makes its way onto the current generation of consoles.

" with a great multiplayer, to boot (which is being headed up by EA DICE ".

[Alcohog]

You can go prone in every PC BF game...can you not in the console versions?

[Fishy Fingers]

No not in the console version. Dice claimed the lower resolution made it difficult to spot prone players at distance, there for making it all to camper friendly.

[Raf1k1]

I've been playing the BF:BC2 beta and it does seem as though going prone would make snipers a real pain to spot.

If Dice is doing the multiplayer it should be a pretty fun game.

[calis]

I hope it isn't another WW2 shooter. Get over it.

[bobcostus]

@calis: Helps to read the article bud. It's "Today's War" Set in Afghanistan.

"Helps to read the article bud. It's "Today's War" Set in Afghanistan."

Why read when I have you to summarise in one lovely sentence. ;-)

MoH Current Warfare?

[calis]

oo i'm being n4g stalked. someone needs a life to continuously disagree with me.

[STONEY4]

"MoH Current Warfare?"

No, it's MoH Today's Warfare.

[Eric794]

"Medal of Honor will hit PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in 2010, with EA Los Angeles handling the single-player and the Battlefield veterans at EA DICE on multiplayer"

Good-God. This game is going to be amazing.

[SuperM]

Dice doing the multiplayer. this sounds really promising

[mastiffchild]

I'm just praying the backwards step of STILL neglecting the online MP of MW2 by not giving gamers(opn any platform) a decently lag free experience and forcing us into P2P hell won't be repeated here by EA. They need to make this better than MW2 in every area and dedicated servers would be a great place to begin-or are people happy to be limited to lag fests of 9 a side forever? It would win me, loads of PC gamers over and provide a better, more foprward thinking service for evetyone in the process. Also it would give IW/Acti a boot on the bum and maybe get them to care about how THEIR online plays next time up, no?

Whatever, I felt that COD/MW was getting a bit too big for it's boots and Acti need the competition so they push both Treyarcg AND IW harder in future-had this been coming out sooner with dedicated servers and a longer campaign then I doubt we'd have seen MW2 in it's current MW1.5 state. We all know that competition is good in the industry and, to me, the way Acti and IW steam rollered everyone and imposed things we didn't want and that weren't actually the best for the game's quality would've never come to [pass with greater mainstream competition.

Just hope it's a good game as the last MoH was a bit crappy.

[Alcohog]

Oh man, this is going to blow away MW2's singleplayer...which in realiity should not be difficult. This game will be amazing though, indeed!

[peeps]

although i'm really really excited about this game, how can you possibly say that? i mean you know absolutely nothing about this game exept the name, setting and developers!

Medal OF Honor>Call Of Duty

[elcompa425]

Concur.

[AliTheBrit19]

LMFAO

Keep on telling yourself that

Medal of Honour (thats how you f*cking spell it) is now trying to be Call of Duty by moving to a modern setting LOL

[Don_Frappucino]

MOH Frontline was one of the best shooters on PS2

[Cosquae]

Medal of Honor : Modern Warfare?

Medal of Honor : Because-CoD-series-made-so-muc h-money?

Feel free to add your own suggestions ;)

[tdrules]

Infinity Ward was formed from the team that made Medal Of Honor, dont be ignorant

[CobraKai]

I think you nailed it with Medal of Honor: Modern Warfare.

Just because IW was responsible for the original Medal of Honor games doesn't change the fact that MoH is now copying CoD success, which isn't a bad thing. Let's face it I think a lot of people had enough of WW2 games.

[XecutiioneR]

Battlefield 2: Modern Combat came out (Xbox release date: 2005) while Call of Duty was still doing what...? Ohhh WWII games, that's right. Call of Duty only stepped up to modern times 2 years ago (2007), so don't be so quick to write it off.

[evrfighter]

and battlefield 2 had what again?

Ranks and unlocks.

CoD4 was not original in the slightest bit.

But then again. If MoH is a worthy title. All it means is that IW has to step it and give us quality titles. Not $10 more for updated perks and killstreaks...

[W-k]

alright sounds awesome but im going to have fps overload soon lol and i like fighting in the desert sounds great now only if Star wars Battle front 3 was to be announced at vga's next week or a fps star wars game id be sooo happy i just want more star wars in general and not the new crappy star wars cartoon a bobba fett game would rule.My back packs got jets I'm bobba the fett i bounty hunt for jabba hut to finace my vette lala

[TheBand1t]

SAY WHHHAAAT?

[redDevil87]

I remember the first Medal of Honor game i owned. I think it was allied assault where it started off with the normandy beach invasion like Saving Private Ryan. That was epic!

[Anti-Fanboyer]

DICE

[tdogchristy90]

I never was a medal of honor/call of duty fan. But with all this modern warfare I'm all for it. Actually taking the name afganistan and taking real world events and putting them into game GREAT. I can't wait!

[Convas]

WOOT WOOT! From the first time I played MoH on my PS2, I fell in love with the game. Glad to hear their giving it a fresh coat of paint. Will definitely keep my eyes on this.

Seems like the VGAs are going to be the "E3" of December. All I know is this, whether your Pro-PS3 or Pro Xbox 360, 2010 is going to be one HELL of a year for gamers. Exciting times!

[Halo_Reach]

MW2 is so noob , MoH all day of the week !!!!

Also HaloReach !

2010 is set to be industry best year!

[peeps]

"EA announced that Medal of Honor would be getting a franchise reboot as it makes its way onto the current generation of consoles."

eh?? didn't it make it's way onto current gen consoles 2 years ago with airbourne lmao

well whatever, this sounds promicing and i'll be looking frwd to more info

[Elven6]

It's like Tomb Raider, despite the previous game selling millions the new one is always going to be called a "reboot" since the other ones did so bad. Of course in the case of MOH, most of them did bad and didn't sell as well as they could have because of it!

And what was up with Airborne? SPOILER SPOILER

S.S. "robots"?...They had such a cool premise and mechanic to boot, they didn't need that crap! =/

[DecoyOctopus]

DICE is making the multiplayer and EA:la is making the singleplayer?.. this is probably going to be a great game.. even better than MW2

[SpinalRemains138]

MOH is the real deal. COD is great too, but MOH started the whole WWII FPS on consoles. I had MOH1 on the original PS (Ahh the days of Panzernacker) and have played them all up till now. I am glad to see that they're moving to modern weaponry too. Perhaps they'll get it right and have assault rifles with a little recoil and have a multiplayer where you don't get shot in the back every 7 seconds. Sorry IW, your game is weak and unbalanced.

[samoon]

I'm actually stoked.....

MW2 had an extremely "MEH" story compared to the first one, too many plot twists that left you completely lost...

This, looks to be very promising, I loved Medal of Honor series and I always wanted them to go modern.

Hopefully it turns out good!

[rob6021]

They better not try to copy COD with a 'modern' installment, we have enough modern games right now. I want them to go back and make a game that follows the story line of HBO's 'the pacific.' WW2 can still be fun, WAW just kind really diluted it.

[RockmanII7]

All of the VGAs special announcements have mostly already been announced. lol

[electricshadow]

I'll keep this game on my radar. I enjoy the MoH series and Airborne was pretty good.

[PS3Freak]

I loved the Medal of honours on ps2, but after playing Bad company, Airbourne seemed terrible in comparision.

Hopefully they can improve the series, if so, i'm down.

[zonetrooper5]

Ok, enough of this America vs England BS, nobody cares and its not related to this article. Deleted all the comments dealing with this argument, all of the other ones shall be deleted since they don't belong here.
